I wd take the point forward as to what is the point of raising the hopes of arnd 1100 students outta 1700 ... whats the point of holding the GD/PI in the first place?
Anyways its always better to gear up for the next year and not waste time on this fruitless discussion!

completely agree with you.. they waitlist 450 ppl and only 20 are cleared.. That sure means they got their calculation wrong. And finally only about 700 out of 1700 have got through. I never knew it was this tough. Anyways.. time to move on i guess.. should take a couple of weeks off and start preparing for CAT 07!!

Sorry to interfere....
But whats the point of giving new waitlist to ppl especially if they are beyond 100 say?

Well... called up the Admission's office...
The news about 20 more confirmed from waitlist is true... I gues Linzfan shud b thru... Congrats to u buddy... :)

For others, situation looks quite grim now... But I am still hopeful... The next date they have put is 28th of May.

Hello PUys,
Been keeping a track of the thread but was waiting to post as it was pure specualtion till now.
From initial posts this morning I think we can take it that the WL at IIM I for the batch of 2009 has moved by 20.
Congratulations to those who have joined in. For others who are beyond the 50 mark on the waiting list I think its very difficult.
Do not lose heart and smile is all I can say.

The institute will continue to update your WL number as till they close the admissions for the batch 0f 2009 there has to be a WL status for each person on the WL. But i dont see it moving beyond 50 at this point of time.

Once again all of us seniors are there and u can post or PM us for anything at all...

hey guys i just called the IIM and they said congrets dilip . an confirm offer.

I said thankyou and then i am in heaven for next few seconds.
i just wanna to thanks all the PGs for help and support they offered .
and what more . its time to party for me. i wish all the best to other people in waitlist and congrets for all waitlister who got confirmation

ashish abraham Says

Out of 180 seats, about 40 will be for SC/ST.. So out of the remaining 140 seats, 120 have been filled.

Yes, thats true but do we have a different Waitlist for SC/ST? Well watever be the case ...CAT07 ... here I come! :2gunfire:

A_s_h_i_s_h Says

So 20 guys getting confirmed.. means ard 160 took up the offer from the confirmed list.

Well what is the point in giving new waitlist numbers to ppl waitlisted outside the 50 range..

my new waitlist number is 53.. it's all over now.. congrats to all puys in the 1-20 range and all the best to the others who have a chance..

So 20 guys getting confirmed.. means ard 160 took up the offer from the confirmed list.

Called up admissions office and came to know that 20 students have been offered calls in the waitlist...so my new WL no. is 318 instead of 338 ...
Hope this post helps all those in the 50's range! Best of Luck Puys!!! :-P

early morning update:
Nothin on the website yet..
no one pickin up the phone yet..
a long exasperating yet hopefully fruitful day begins..
All the BEST ppl!

Guys , one more news. According to TIME, they have 328 Time students confirmed in Lucknow, 391 students confirmed in IIM Indore & 443 students confirmed in IIM Kozhikode.
Following are the conclusions that I can draw,

1.Overall, IIM K has given more confirmed calls than that of IIM I . So dont worry that IIM I has given so many confirmed calls. That is done by the institutes based on their experience, otherwise two institutes can't do the same mistake.

2. If the waitlist moves by 25 students in Case of IIM L (328 Time students), then same shud be the case with IIM I (391 time students). ( The only catch here being that IIM L has more number of seats but is compensated by the fact that students prefer L over I )

Hope the waitlist moves by a good number. Let god bless all of us.

Ashish,
ur friend shud have some idea about his waitlist atleast the range i.e. was it less than 25 or less than 50 or betn 50 & 75, etc. Otherwise it seems quite strange.

Also ask him whether he tried on some specific number , which others might not have known. Hence he got the result in positive & others got it in negative.

I just hope that the results come tomo & the waitlist starts moving.

hey he has a confirmed call from L.. so he never bothered to know his waitlist number at I. And he is not a regular on PG.. We are collegemates.. So i came to know about it. We will know tomorrow morning anyways.. just that i feel bad that we could have cut short the wait by half a day!

hey people

i dont know if i m gonna add any value here.. but just have the faith is all i have to say. till such time they dont say anythin in black and white . dont believe anything !

waitlists ought to move. thats what they are for ;).. u realise that there is no science in this world which can tell them that who is gonna take up what ! and these guys dont coordinate amongst themselves < all iim's between themselves i mean > so chill please !

i remember the time i was waiting .. i just went out for two movies back to back ! and it was crazy still ! can empathize with all o' you but there is seriously no point speculating !

god bless

Pawan I hope you are right for so many puys here, though i dont stand a chance (wl273), i hope maximum number of people who wish to take up, succeed.

hey ashish are you sure.i called them at 4:50Pm and they said call tomarrow (i am waitlist No. 20)

well.. he might have got the time wrong but i called him up and found out from him about this.. So i have no option but to believe him!!

ashish abraham Says

Ppl.. my friend who had been waitlisted at IIM Indore called up around 4:30 in the evening today and he was told that he has got a confirmed seat. Guess we have wasted a day.. And the worst part was he does not know his initial waiting list number. So we cant judge till what number has been cleared.. Anyways.. so we can find out first up in the morning.. All the best to all.. i am really tensed now!!

To all the puys losing hope...

Waitlist will clear... and believe me... it will clear very deep... Only that its just a matter of time...

All the best for tomorrow...!!

friend,
can u say the same thing about the IIMK waitlist
@people
I & K waitlist threads have been really scary today(some of you must have visited the K w/l thread)
going through the posts & others' experiences situation looks very grim
i've been following this thread very keenly though i'm not waitlisted in I and i must say u all 've been amazing
all the best to all of you

To all the puys losing hope...

Waitlist will clear... and believe me... it will clear very deep... Only that its just a matter of time...

All the best for tomorrow...!!

@rani
i totally support u in saying that mayb they are just saying that all seats hv been filled by the first list only and they do not need any waitlisters(uhhhh....wen they say that i feel like a worker asking for a job....:sad::sad:...for whom they hv no place)to just discourage ppl frm calling them again and again and as far as ethical issues are concerned i dnt think that they wud be worried abt ethics rite nw...they must be compiling the list rite now and hvnt got it redy as yet...so wudnt like to be disturbed....and they always say at the end that call us tomorrow bcuz thats wen the list wud be cleared....and as the IIM L aitlist has moved by 25 then so cud IIM I's list and by a bigger nmbr....though it wud take time as some of those waitlkisted in L wud withdraw admission and some of the waitlisters wud also leave....so hoping against hope for this wait to end..i alwaz knew that 13 was an unlucky nmbr...didnt believe it till nw...

For all those who have seen disappointment i would like to say only 1 thing
disappointment is good because you know that it is a feeling not to be felt ever again...






------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will make people recognize me.

Not at all. cheers.

I was just thinking if none of the people on the waitlist get a chance to join,
can we send this to the guiness book of world records in the category
"the longest waitlist put up by an institution that never moved an inch"

rani.. i can understand your frustration but lets be patient for one more day.. and i am stil sure that the waitlist will move though by a small number only i think.. lets wait and c tomorr..

Hey rani..

don feel bad pls wid dat post of mine...Sorry....

Cheers,

Rahul

i guess its no use speculating now. its pretty much clear. lets accept the hard fact now. Life isn't fair always.

all the best to all the CAT 2007 and GMAT aspirants. And for those who still have hopes, all the best to u too.

No offence to anyone, but keeping 500 people waiting for nothing for 20 days, huh!!!!
how ethical is that................

When was the last time anyone heard about a govt employee caring about ethics?

Anyhow this is one huge miscalculation alright

Well Rani...

At the B-schools, one of the most imp thing they teach students is to be ethical. And i m very sure Under No circumstances will these guys opt for such a way to avoid phone calls...

Any ways...

I don think more dan 10 ppl will clear it.... lets c.... jus matter of few hrs.. [ maybe few days / a few weeks ] ..


Cheers

Rahul

Well Guys,

I just feel that if the number of seats vacant is less like IIML say 25 or 30 IIMI should have given it right today. May be May be the seats are more and so they are taking some time in thinking on the number of WL to be called factoring the rejection rate among the WL candidates also.


Hope my hunch is right. Keep your hope friends we never know what future is in store for us

the person in question (Mr Andrews?) seemed like a responsible enough person not to go arnd uttering rubbish to discourage callers.

only tomorrow will clear the picture (although by how much i doubt)

but not all of us spoke to Mr.Andrews did we???

Fair enough but we don't know how it feels to answer calls (repeating the same answer!) every other minute and still having to work on processing the dds and other stuff.. so we can never say.

I am starting to wonder if there is a planned and well concerted strategy to keep their phone off from ringing by saying that "all seats have been occupied"
so that they can work in peace to decide how many more offer letters need to be issued (something which should have been done before the dawn of 15th).

i agree with you.. and the news about the L waitlist (though only 25 have been cleared) is encouraging enough.. We would need to wait another day for now.. I wonder why they had to mention May 15 when they knew the last date is May 14th.. anyways.. no cribbing.. n hopefully the I waitlist will move by a much larger number than the L waitlist.. then the wait wouldn matter!

seems nothing short of a miracle, that all 180 seats will be filled by first 676.
Only way this could happen is, if significant number of people with one amongst ABCL in the bag, would still choose Indore.
What are the odds of that happening, one in a million?

Well it has been the waiting game since CAT ... so now I am fed up of speculating and forecasting ... Come tomorrow morning and its time to move on and prepare for the battle again! :lookroun:

Just called up admissions office and asked as to when the new waitlist will be out ... got a reply of 8 AM tomorrow ... have no other option left than to believe it!

There s a post in L thread saying some1 is thru. So do have hopes guys. :)
WL moved upto 25 in L. Others asked to wait for 3 weeks.

Yeah i called up L and they told me very vaguely that arnd 25 had cleared.

I hope I follows suit soon

Well I have called up IIM Indore and ttalked with Mr Adrews. There is no news and he too repeaated the same dialogue pls chk tomorrow inspite of me asking him several times.

Last thing I asked him was Will it be updated in the website ot should I call?

He said U have to call and then I asked when should I call?

He said after 11:00AM hopefully:sad:

Looks like Wait is going to continue atleast for a while

lionkiller Says

hey guys IIMindore site had stop responding donno why but looks like some update may be possible

There were false alarms like this for the L waitlist also.

99% of the time, it is ppl like you and me continuously hitting the site in anticipation and making it go down. the rest of the time its a technical fault

but someone has to call them up so that v get some intimation that they are teling the status.. even i thought of not calling again, i caled so many times n got the same answer in different tones..

but then they wont do all the dd collection in the last minute and who will send their dds on the last day???
only a very few!!


All the documentation shud have been done by 4pm yeaar!!



Even me not going to call till i see some post here saying yipee i ve got it !! :))
